![]() This taco seasoning mix is a terrific staple to add to your arsenal for all things Tex Mex, from Quesadillas to Burritos, Enchiladas to Taco Soup (don’t knock it until you’ve tried it, it’s amazing!). Just pure, normal spices and herbs – no scary sounding ingredients you can’t pronounce like maltodextrin, silicon dioxide and ethoxyquin that you’ll find in packets of store bought!! (Yes really, just Google “Old El Paso taco seasoning ingredients”) Skip the packet seasoning! It truly is quite incredible how simple it is to make homemade taco seasoning. Garlic, onion, cumin, paprika, oregano plus optional cayenne pepper for a touch of heat. Let me put it this way – if I had a choice of a cold slice of cheese slapped on bread, or a grilled cheese sandwich with gooey cheese oozing out the sides, I know which one I’d choose. I don’t know if that’s “normal”, but I’ll take any opportunity to melt cheese when appropriate. This is how I make my old school beef tacos – BAKING them to melt the cheese and crisp the tacos shells. So beef mince tacos, the single most popular type of taco meat made in million and millions of households the world over, is totally un-authentic.Īnd that’s absolutely ok. We love them anyway – and we will always love them! Bake them! ![]() Authentic beef tacos are either sliced seared steaks (like Carne Asada), or marinated beef chopped into thin strips that are pan fried to get golden crispy edges (taqueria style), or slow-cooked and shredded into sauce like this Shredded Beef Mexican Beef and Beef Barbacoa. You will never find ground beef / mince tacos in Mexico. Because melted cheese wins over unmelted cheese every day! I like to BAKE my tacos to crisp the shells and melt the cheese before piling on the fresh toppings. Beef Tacos – the old school way!!! With juicy seasoned beef taco meat and crispy shells, this taco recipe is made with a simple yet flavour packed homemade taco seasoning that truly tastes like store bought. ![]()
